Erb is expected to replace Zak Kuhr, who is thought to be going to Texas State and joining the staff there.

Erb was a running backs/special teams coach for the Wolfpack from 2013-2015 before taking on the role of associate head coach/wide receivers coach this past season.

Before that, he worked at Iowa for 13 seasons as a wide receivers/special teams coach and then a running backs/special teams coach. Erb also has experience with Army-West Point, the Baltimore Ravens and Syracuse, among other teams.

Last season, the Scarlet Knights ran for 1,739 yards on 489 carries and scored just eight rushing touchdowns as a team.
